Well Done! As you're looking at this it's likely you're thinking aboutre-training to work in a different industry - that means you've alreadytaken one more step than the majority. A small minority of us arepleased to go to work each day, but it's rare anyone does more thanmoan. Why not be one of a small number who actually do something aboutit. With regard to individual courses, look for an advisor whowill be able to guide you on what to look for. A person who will get toknow your personality, and find out what types of work suit you:* Would you like to work with others? If the answer's yes, would youenjoy being part of a team or are you more comfortable dealing withstrangers? Or are you better working in isolation? * What thoughts are fundamental regarding the industry you're looking to get into?* Would you like this to be the last time you'll need to re-qualify?* Are you worried with regard to your chances of getting another job,and being gainfully employed to the end of your working life?We would advise you to find out more about the IT industry - there aregreater numbers of jobs than people to do them, plus it's a rare careerchoice where the industry is on the grow. In contrast to the beliefs ofsome, IT is not full of nerdy individuals gazing at their computerscreens all day long (if you like the sound of that though, they doexist.) The vast majority of roles are done by average folk who enjoy avery nice lifestyle due to better than average wages. Thesomewhat scary thought of getting your first job is often eased by sometraining providers because they offer a Job Placement Assistancefacility. It can happen though that there is more emphasis than isnecessary on this service, because it's relatively easy for a welltrained and motivated person to secure work in this industry - asemployers are keen to find appropriately trained staff. Havingsaid that, it's important to have help and assistance with preparing aCV and getting interviews though; and we'd recommend everybody to bringtheir CV up to date as soon as they start a course - don't wait tillyou've finished your exams. You might not even have passed your firstexam when you'll secure your initial junior support job; however thiswon't be the case unless you've posted your CV on job sites. The mostefficient companies to help you land that job are most oftenindependent and specialised local recruitment services. Because theyget paid commission to place you, they have more incentive to get onwith it. In a nutshell, as long as you put the same commitmentinto finding your first IT position as into studying, you're not likelyto experience problems. Some students strangely put hundreds of hoursinto their training and studies and then just stop once they've passedtheir exams and seem to expect employers to find them. Anyadvisor who doesn't dig around with lots of question - it's likelythey're really a salesperson. If they push a particular product beforeunderstanding your background and whether you have any commercialexperience, then you know it's true. If you've got a strong background,or sometimes a little commercial experience (possibly even someprevious certification?) then it's likely the level you'll need tostart at will be different from someone with no background whatsoever.Commencing with a basic PC skills course first may be the ideal way tostart into your computer studies, but depends on your skill level. 'ExamGuarantees' are often bundled with training offers - inevitably thatmeans paying for the exams before you've even made a start on thecourse. However, prior to embracing this so-called guarantee, considerthis: You'll pay for it one way or another. It certainly isn'tfree - they've simply charged more for the whole training package. Thefact is that if a student pays for their relevant examinations, whenthey're ready to take them and not before, there's a much better chancethey'll qualify each time - since they're aware of the cost andtherefore will put more effort into their preparation. Doesn'tit make more sense to not pay up-front, but when you take the exam,instead of paying a premium to a training college, and to do it in alocal testing office - rather than in some remote centre? Buying acourse that includes payments for examinations (which also includesinterest if you've taken out a loan) is madness. Resist being talkedinto filling the training company's account with extra money of yoursjust to give them more interest! Many will hope you don't even takethem all - so they get to keep the extra funds. It's also worth notingthat 'Exam Guarantees' often aren't worth the paper they're written on.Most companies won't be prepared to pay again for an exam until youhave demonstrated conclusively that you won't fail again.Prometric and VUE exams are in the region of 112 pounds in thiscountry. What's the point of paying huge charges for 'Exam Guarantees'(often hidden in the cost) - when the best course materials, the rightlevel of support and commitment, effort and practice with quality exampreparation systems are the factors that really get you through. Authorisedexam simulation and preparation software is crucial - and must beobtained from your training provider. Avoid depending on non-officialpreparation materials for exams. The terminology of their questions canbe quite different - and this leads to huge confusion when the properexam time arrives. Why don't you analyse how much you know throughquizzes and practice exams to get you ready for the real deal. Article Tags: It's Likely, Exam Guarantees
